USMT - Adminstrative privileges are required to run this tool

I am trying to start using the USMT tool within the K2000. I can get past the profiles to select, so I am getting connected to the PC, but once I select the user profile to copy and hit next I get an error in the Retrieve Log that states:

  • I'm running into the same issue. Last time all we did was restart the computer and try again, and then it worked. This time it's not working. Did you happen to find a solution for this? - forgetiii 8 years ago
  • I haven't at this time, to be honest it's gotten pushed to the back burner for the time being. - stick02 8 years ago

Try to create a batch script and verify which user it is running as on the machine.  Before running the command to launch USMT, run this:

Must create the log directory first or use another directory that exists.

echo %username% c:\logs\USMT.log

Then look at this file and see if it is the user you think it is running as.  Then double check the user permissions on the local computer or domain.
